The cost to participate is $25 in-person or $30 virtually. Registration for both can be completed online at

The walk is a culmination of the 12-week course entitled 鈥淚n the Line of Duty,鈥 which teaches students historical, emotional, and interpersonal skills to understand further the commitment first responders make when taking an oath as a professional. Senior Lecturer Seth McBride teaches the course, and he said the objective is to recognize the fallen heroes who have made the utmost sacrifice. 鈥淭he content covered in this course, and the conversations that take place throughout the 12-week semester, will push students outside of their comfort zone,鈥 McBride said. 鈥淲e are asking college students to create connections with someone who has tragically lost a loved one. These difficult conversations and the relationships that result from it will prepare the minds of our students for the trajectory of their career.鈥

Any monies raised or donations received during the walk will benefit two organizations: Supporting Heroes, Inc. and Who鈥檚 House Our House (WHOH) organizations. Supporting Heroes, Inc. is focused on serving family members of fallen first responders to create relationships amid tragedy, and WHOH promotes community policing initiatives with inner-city youth.

The post C-SC Criminal Justice Students Honor Fallen Heroes at Annual Event first appeared on 乱伦社区.]]> Senior lecturer Seth McBride created the 鈥淚n the Line of Duty鈥 course in 2017 to provide students with historical, emotional, and interpersonal skills to better understand the commitment first responders make when taking a personal oath as a professional. The 12-week class takes a deep dive into the psychological components of a first responder, focusing on law enforcement by reviewing case studies and officer-involved shootings. The course’s objective is to recognize fallen heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice, and throughout the course, C-SC students represent a person who lost their lives in the line of duty. The national organization Supporting Heroes, Inc matches students with family members of fallen first responders to create relationships amid tragedy. Then, students represent their assigned hero during the class through written assignments, speeches, social media responsibilities, and the Fallen Officer walk. For the first time in program history, this event will pay tribute to firefighters who were killed on duty while also honoring law enforcement officers who suffered a line of duty death.

鈥淭his is a life course,鈥 McBride said, 鈥淲e are asking college students to go out of their comfort zone to connect with someone who has lost a loved one.鈥 While the conversations may present new experiences for the students, the project’s outcomes far outweigh the hesitations. Jared Henderson, a senior at C-SC, has chosen to represent a fallen firefighter because he serves as a volunteer firefighter in his community. Henderson said that he knows the project and walk are 鈥渋mportant to the families.鈥 He shared, 鈥淭he Fallen Officer Project lets them know that their family member hasn鈥檛 been forgotten- it represents and honors them.鈥

The walk will be held on the Richeson Track at Ellison-Poulton Stadium on the campus of 乱伦社区 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 9, 2022. The cost to participate is $25, and registration is open to the public.聽 All proceeds go to Supporting Heroes and Whose House Our House Foundation, an organization committed to bridging the gap between law enforcement and inner-city youth.
